Charlie Hodgson to retire
- 1036
The 38-time England international will hang up his boots after Saturday’s showpiece to become Saracens’ new head of recruitment and talent identification.
The Premiership Rugby’s all-time leading points-scorer with 2,623, is readying himself to wave goodbye in what will be his 253rd league appearance.
Hodgson joined Saracens from Sale Sharks in 2011 and the veteran fly-half could cap a remarkable career by becoming a Premiership Rugby champion for a fourth time – 10 years after his first title with the Manchester outfit in 2006.
"The word class sums him up. He was class out on the training field today and he is one of the best passers of the ball I have ever seen," said Director of Rugby of the Season, Mark McCall.
